Abstract

The invention provides a low-voltage laminated lithium niobate electro-optical Q switch, which is formed by stacking several rectangular thin-sheet lithium niobate crystals along the thickness direction, and the cutting shape, size, and film coating of each crystal are exactly the same , the thickness direction of the lithium niobate crystal is the electric field direction, the length direction is the light transmission direction, and the two crystal faces of each crystal in the thickness direction are coated with electrodes. The present invention superimposes a plurality of rectangular thin slices and adopts the method of parallel power supply, under the condition of ensuring the same light aperture, the half-wave voltage can be reduced several times, which is beneficial to practical application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of pulsed laser Q-switching devices, in particular to a low-voltage laminated lithium niobate electro-optical Q switch. Background technique [0002] Q-switching technology is currently one of the most common ways to obtain short pulse lasers, and its appearance is an important breakthrough in the history of high peak power laser development. Compared with other Q-switching technologies, electro-optic Q-switching technology has the advantages of active controllability, fast switching speed, strong turn-off capability, and high extinction ratio. It is easy to obtain stable high peak power and narrow pulse width laser output, and the peak power can reach several Hundreds of megawatts, and the output time can be precisely controlled, and high-precision synchronization between the laser and other linked instruments can be achieved. Therefore, the electro-optical Q switch has become the most widely used Q-switching switch...
